My review is for Flour, the full-service restaurant attached to The Pizza Shop, a takeout spot. I had been eager to try their pies, as well as their full meals, but only just made it to their dimly lit, hip and happening main dining room. The space was not large, but they really made the most of it, offering a decent number of tables with reasonable space between them. My friend and I were quickly seated and immediately greeted by a charming server that opened our bottle of wine (it's BYO) and offered us still or sparkling water. I had read in other reviews that you had to pay for water, so I was not surprised by the $6 bottle of Saratoga that wound up on our bill. In addition to our engaging server and the happening atmosphere, the food was similarly incredible. We decided to order a load of things to share, so that we could try a greater variety. We started with two appetizers that were seasonal Spring additions to the menu. The Hamachi Crudo included five thickly-sliced, tender pieces of Japanese yellowtail sitting in a broth of rhubarb aguachile and topped with white strawberries and basil seeds. It was an unique blend that we would not have expected to work, but boy was it delicious! The sweet toppings infused a load of flavor into an otherwise mild fish. We also enjoyed the Fava-mole, a creamy puree of fava beans studded with balls of hand-pulled mozzarella and pea tendrils, all drizzled with zesty ramp oil. I had not been sure what to expect from the dish, but it offered fresh, bright garden flavors. We also decided to share a pasta course and an entree. The Fettuccini was tossed with spring truffles and maitakes in a light, yet heavily aromatic, wild mushroom cream sauce. It was one of the best dishes I had had in quite some time. Then, as we were waiting on our seafood entree, we received a second pasta, courtesy of the Chef. I had mentioned that I had heard rave reviews about Flour from a server at Heirloom Kitchen, a top NJ restaurant. Apparently, our waiter had let the Chef know about that glowing praise, and the kitchen further verified that positivity with the generous gesture. In fact, they wound up sending out the Linguine with white clam sauce, razor clams, and wild ramps, the other dish about which I had been most curious anyway. Well, it was another winner! It was garlicky, herbaceous, and rich with flavors of the sea. Speaking of seafood, we next received the Branzino 'Bahn mi', a perfectly cooked piece of Mediterranean sea bass with Vietnamese sausage and pickled vegetables. The branzino's crispy skin and flaky, moist interior were excellent, and we loved all of the other smoky and briny flavors on the plate. After all of that excellent food, we would have loved to try one of their appealing desserts, but we were just too full. Between the ambiance, welcoming vibe, and delicious cuisine, our Flour experience was simply divine! It has now became one of my favorite restaurants in the area, and I cannot wait to try their pizza at some point as well. read more

I came with a small group on a Tuesday night. We started off by sharing the whipped ricotta and the Hamachi crudo. I was a big fan of both, especially the ricotta, which was so incredibly creamy. For the mains, everyone's fresh-made pasta was excellent. I ordered the Mexican street corn, which was unique, flavorful, and delicious. I also tried some of the spicy rigatoni and loved it. We ended the night with the s'mores dessert, which was rich and chocolatey. Also, the fact that the restaurant is BYOB is a huge plus! The only downside was that I lost an item during our visit. I had a really hard time finding their contact information online, so I had to go back in person to ask about it, which was a bit annoying. Ultimately, they weren't able to recover it, but the food itself was still outstanding. read more

FYI: this place is a BYOB only restaurant. They do not serve liquor so bring as many bottles of whatever as you want. Now that that's out the way let's get into the food! I came here with 4 hungry friends, and so we indulged by getting a lot of food and sharing everything family style. For starters we got the whipped ricotta and spicy-ish Caesar salad. They were both delicious but I'd go back just for the salad alone, had a nice kick and sooo much cheese on top, YUM! Main plates: we shared 4 diff pastas. The Mexican street corn, spicy rigatoni, cavatelli, and fettuccini. They were equally good but my favorite was hands down the fettuccini and rigatoni. Everything was so creamy and well seasoned. The ambiance: low moody lighting. Cool plates and attentive and kind service. I'd def recommend for date night with your lover our group of friends. read more

This is for the restaurant not the pizza shop Overall pretty decent place with good dishes. The knock is for the service. Although we came at presumably off peak (5:30), the service and attention to detail was a miss. I can't imagine how much more it could fall off during peak hours. In terms of the dishes, great execution. The toast and spicy-ish salad were great. Just wish the salad had a bit more of a punch or zing to meet the name. The pasta dishes were pretty great as well. I recommend the Mexican street corn as well as the mushroom linguine dish. The mafaldine missed the mark and needed a bit more citrus and a bit more peppercorn. The dessert was okay. Tasted more like corn bread than olive oil cake. The olive oil used seemed to not be earthy or robust enough to punch through. Overall, worth a try. May have been an off day, but I'd still be picky on what dishes make sense to actually try. read more

My husband has been talking about this place for months and wanted to go. I was a little trepidatious as I'm Gluten free and dairy free and the place is called flour. When we got there, I was happy that there were a few options for me and the waiter was helpful and willing to make my dishes a bit modified. The good news also was they used my favorite water Saratoga. I am always happy when a restaurant uses this water as I feel it's the best, The fish and chips appetizer was very good and my Branzino dish was also tasty and delicious. The S'mores dessert was also perfect! I did not eat the graham cracker. My husband liked his dishes as well. My only real issue was there wasn't a lot of food. We both could have eaten more. The place was nice, but the couch seating was a little awkward. All in all, the place was good and I would go back and eat what I had again. I hope they get more gluten free options in the future. read more

Flour has been on mine and my friend's "to try" list for a while, and we finally had a chance to go on a weeknight. It's worth noting that I have been here once in the past; however, it doesn't seem that there's a great waitlist system. The first time we went, we did not have a reservation. We were informed by the host that it would be about 1 hour (about 8:30) and that we should come back then as there would be a table available then. They also asked for my name as well. We came back at 8:30 on the dot and were told that another party had already taken the table before us. This was confusing, because why even bother taking my name down? That experience alone warranted losing a star. Anyway, lesson learned, only come here with a reservation. Back to the present. We were seated promptly and service is extremely efficient. My friend and I got a few dishes to share: - whipped ricotta (appetizer) - spicy rigatoni - mexican street corn - olive oil cake + s'mores dessert. The whipped ricotta was a strong start to our meal. The ricotta was well seasoned and the bread was perfectly toasted. The meal only got better. The Mexican corn pasta was a interesting twist on elote corn - very rich and flavorful. The main standout was the spicy rigatoni. I could've eaten several plates of the rigatoni on my own because it was that good. The desserts were okay. The s'mores dessert I felt was much better than the olive oil cake. The last thing to point out is that there is no tap or filtered water offered, meaning one has to purchase a bottle of still or sparkling water. This is a little bit of an unfamiliar model to me. Overall, a lovely spot for a girls night out or a date. They definitely know how to make a mean pasta over there. read more

Was a guest as part of a party group. Rented out the venue. 1. Space for 25ish people was a bit tight. 2. The Mafaldine, very disappointed. Strong taste of lemon, possibly too much lemon. 3. Both deserts we had: Olive Oil cake S'mores- below average. 4. spicy rigatoni was the best of them all. Great taste, good proportion of sauce. 5. mexican street corn pasta- disappointing. Overly creamy and sweet. read more

This review is for the pizza shop - What the heck did I just eat for $45...I feel like I'm being pranked. I ordered the 1/2 classic and 1/2 delfino and wish I didn't waste my money on this place. I briefly looked up reviews before ordering and wish I looked more closely. I'm not surprised there are other poorly rated reviews and I have a feeling a lot of the positive reviews are from the establishments family and/or friends. I'm normally not the person to complain or write negative reviews but this felt like a scam. I'll leave it at that. The picture shows 3 1/2 slices eaten by 3 people...the rest thrown in the basura. That means trash in Italian read more

Heard a ton of hype about Flour in Hoboken, so I made it a point to check it out while I was back in town. First thing to know: make a reservation. It wasn't hard to snag one, but the space is tiny and gets packed, so 100% book ahead. Also, it's BYOB, which is a huge plus unless you forget like we did. Luckily there's a liquor store a block away, so crisis averted. We went full family-style, which I recommend here. Started with the spicy Caesar and their famous whipped ricotta bread. Honestly, the apps were the highlight of the whole night. The Caesar was incredible, and the whipped ricotta with bread was amazing--plus they do a piece per person, which is a small but very appreciated detail. For pastas, we tried four: * Spicy rigatoni * Fettuccini in mushroom cream * Mexican street corn ravioli * Lamb cavatelli Fettuccini and the lamb cavatelli were the clear winners. The spicy rigatoni and street corn were just okay both leaned a little too sweet for my taste and the tables taste. Wrapped up with the s'mores dessert, which was like a mousse-style s'more and honestly phenomenal. Overall, Flower is definitely worth checking out. Some dishes hit harder than others, but the highs were really good, and the vibe + BYOB make it a great spot for a group dinner. read more

A definite top 5 pizza I've had (3rd or 4th place) and I've tried a lot of pizza. Called in on a Friday night and they don't take orders for a later time which I found odd but called back. They get your number to text you when it's ready. I picked up about 25-30 minutes after it was done but it was still hot. Pizza and especially the dough was fantastic, light and crunchy all the way through. Cheese and sauce were decent as well and the pepperoni was great. They also give you a side of hot honey which is a nice touch. No eat in for dinner but there is a couple parks nearby you can eat at if you're taking to go on a nice day. Really glad I tried this place! read more

My friends and I came here for her birthday a few months ago and the owner was so sweet- he gave us free champagne, appetizers and dessert to help us celebrate.

The food was also incredible, the s'mores dessert and the Mexican street corn pasta I literally haven't stopped thinking about in the months since we've been there We will definitely be back! read more

While visiting Hoboken, I kept passing by this place- always full, unable to take walks ins! I figured i'd be good and we booked a reservation.. they do not serve alcohol but you can bring your own, so we prepped with a nice bottle of wine! Its a small locally owned place, with nice indoor/outdoor space and featuring a a limited menu, but all items seem quite unique.. the owner stopped by to say hi, and he made some recommendations for appetizers, we went for tuna tartare, whipped ricotta, and mussels.. my fave were the mussels, the wine sauce was amazing. We were already full.. but had to try pizza so we split a pie with different toppings and pretty much had it to go.. read more

Delicious! I came with a party of 5 and we got 3 apps and 4 pastas (only shared amongst 4 of us) which was plenty of food! This restaurant is BYOB so we brought our own wine. We started with the ricotta, tuna, and Caesar salad. The ricotta comes with 3 pieces of bread so we were able to add on 2 more for each of us. This was the fluffiest ricotta I've ever had and it's also served with peppers which made it even more unique. The Caesar salad was delicious and came with toasted breadcrumbs with were a nice touch. The tuna was good but I could've gone without it to be honest. I will be thinking about that ricotta for a very long time For the pastas, we got the spicy rigatoni, cavatelli, Mexican street corn, and gnocchi. We wanted to try the oochi but they were out of it. We weren't planning to order the Mexican street corn but this was highly recommended by our server and she was right, it was so unique to the restaurant and tasty. While all the pastas were good, the gnocchi was my absolute favorite. It was not as dense as normal gnocchi and I believe the server said that is because it is ricotta based instead of potato. Our friend ordered her own dish and got the fettuccini which she said was so good. For dessert, we got the s'mores tart and they were able to put a candle in it for my friends birthday. This was also so yummy and I could've eaten one all by myself it was that good. Overall, this definitely lives up to the hype and I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. This was a great experience! read more

Excellent pasta place! Although small inside, the decor is intimate and inviting. For a Saturday dinner reservation, the earliest time for a party of 2 we could get was 8:45pm. Definitely recommend booking in advance to get your preferred dinner time! The gnocchi with pesto had a great taste. My friend ordered the squid ink pasta and she really enjoyed it. The s'mores tart was an excellent way to finish the meal! This is also a BYOB restaurant. I will definitely return to try the pizza! read more

Ordered: Whipped Ricotta (~$24 for 4 pcs): by Acre Farms with Maria's sweet peppers Spicy-ish Caesar (~$21): red little gem, fermented chili breadcrumbs, colatura dressing Spicy Rigatoni (~$30): Bianco DiNapoli tomato and Calabrian chili breadcrumbs Cavatelli (~$34): lamb ragu, Moroccan spice, Nettle Meadow sheep's cheese Mexican Street Corn (~$34): agnolotti, charred corn crema, queso fresco, tajin S'mores Tart (~$14): graham cracker, chocolate ganache, marshmallow meringue Aya's take: Flour is a contemporary New American restaurant that focuses on Italian handcrafted pastas, pizzas, and breads. They're BYOB and has an intimate, rustic vibe to it. We started with the Whipped Ricotta and Spicy-ish Caesar. The Spicy-ish Caesar is outrageously good. This should be on every table. Don't come here without ordering it. The Whipped Ricotta was a great try; the ricotta layer is a bit too thick for the bread but I did enjoy the sweet peppers it came with. We shared 3 pasta dishes among 4 people which was perfect. I'm not going to lie, they were all good. I would get all 3 again. The Spicy Rigatoni was very well-crafted and is a strong competitor of other famous Spicy Rigatoni dishes (i.e., Carbone, Parm, etc.). The Mexican Street Corn was so satisfying! I loved how creamy, savory, and sweet it was. The agnolotti was also a very smart choice for a dish like this. The Cavatelli was also solid with plenty of lamb ragu in every bite, and the sheep's cheese was fresh and added a nice creamy texture to it. The S'mores Tart is inventive but I don't think I'd order it again. My only complaint would probably be to add their pizzas to the menu so you can enjoy those while dining in. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu! You will absolutely leave full and satisfied. read more

Very nice ambiance. They are byo. I was not blown away by their dishes. I don't know if I would try them again.

Flour was one of my dining experiences this past year. The service was great and the ambiance was awesome. Dimly lit and plenty of space. I ordered the clams to start and it was delicious. There is also A LOT of it so would recommend to share. There is also bread to eat with the delicious clam sauce. It was great. I also had four pastas with the Mexican street corn being my favorite and the standout. It might just be one of my favorite ever pasta. They were all SO good but Mexican corn #1 for me. Lastly, the s'mores tart was also delicious. I very much enjoy creative and unique meals/desserts and flour did that here (and with street corn pasta). I don't love deserts that were too chocolate-y but I didn't feel the tart here was that. It was nicely balanced. Highly recommend. read more

My wife and i had a reservation for 5:30pm on a Thursday, we arrived on time and as soon as we walked in there was a waiter and waitress that were standing still and stared at us for a min. They seemed annoyed that we came in, there was no "hello" or "welcome" just a cold stare, and the restaurant was completely empty we were the first ones there. We walked up to them and asked could we get a table we have a reservation, once they sat us down the waiter proceeded to tell us that the table would only be available until 7 so it seemed they did not want us there for whatever reason which was confusing because we were the only ones there. Also once we sat down we also waited for menus for 15 minutes. The waitress finally took our order and at this time 2 other couples came inside. We observed that the other patrons were greeted and given menus right away and weren't told they had a limited amount of time. So it occurred to us that they do know how to be hospitable but chose not to be with us. The rest of the experience for us was normal, we ordered two pastas, and food was good. The service and hospitality was atrocious and made us start questioning did we do something wrong. We never gave any attitude or said anything, we arrived on time for the reservation, ate our food and left. read more

I had been wanting to come here for ages considering I live around the block. For starters, the food was exceptional. My only feedback is that the portions are a bit modest for the price, but the execution and flavors made up for it. The service however was disturbing. Our waitress was quite hostile, snatching our plates as soon as we finished them. She rushed us at every moment to leave, slipping the check under my friend's elbow and grabbing it from under her elbow which clearly means we haven't had a chance to pay yet. Considering my dessert had just arrived, I would've liked to enjoy it without being forced to pay the bill immediately. We asked her if we could take a few extra minutes to enjoy the dessert and finish our wine, but her answer was simply to cork our wine for us to bring home (further pressuring us to leave). From there, she yanked the wine bottle from us to cork it in the back. I left my dessert behind after only taking a few bites because I was clearly not welcome and could no longer enjoy my meal given the waitress' behavior. I get you want to go home but when the restaurant is open for another hour and a half (she also lied about the time they closed when we asked how much time we had) you'd think you'd try to give a decent experience to your patrons. I found it particularly odd that no other tables were rushed except for us. I checked the time and we weren't there for even an hour and there were about 8 other empty tables available inside with ample seating outdoors as well. Extremely disappointed in the service here considering I was so blown away by the food. I would've become a frequent diner had I not had such a negative experience. Update: The owner was extremely responsive and receptive to the feedback. I will be giving this place another try given how amazing the food was and how he handled the situation. His level of service is worth another visit - will keep everyone posted! read more

Ambiance was beautiful. It was dim but not too dim and the candles at every table was beautiful. Love the BYOB! We had the Caesar (hints of mandarin orange?), the whipped ricotta, spicy rigatoni, and smore tarte, and it was all amazing. Service was great too! Super quick! read more

Yes, yes and yes. Went here on NYE for the first time for a pre fixe menu. Was able to try a bunch of different things and each dish was better than the one before. We had the whipped ricotta, spicy caesar, tuna crudo to start and then the Mexican street corn pasta, spicy rigatoni and lemon pasta for entrees. We finished the night with the s'mores tart.

PSA: Flour, the restaurant, does not serve pizza. The pizza shop by flour, which is a door connected to the back of the restaurant, takes online and in person orders for pizza ONLY. Our group learned this the hard way when we arrived at the restaurant but the staff were very friendly and let us sit outside with our pizzas and brought us paper plates. The pizza itself was one of the best pizzas in Hoboken. The bottom is so crispy and not greasy. We ordered a plain square, square topped with garlic prosciutto and hot honey (in sauce containers for $2 each which we thought were a little expensive and not actually on the pizza), clam and delfino (sausage and onion). They were the perfect ratio of sauce to topping while maintaining a crispy bottom. All in all, I would love to get their pizzas again but next time I'd know to do take out. read more

Just Wow. This restaurant is a destination. It elevates dining in Hoboken. Packed for a reason, the service is on point. The whole team works together seamlessly to provide elite service in an unobtrusive way. Best Caesar salad in Hoboken, crunchy and spicy with the perfect dressing ratio. Tried steak tartare for the first time and appreciated the blend of flavors with the steak chopped small and mixed with a fried treat. The cavatielli with lamb, perfectly cooked with morrocan spices. The crazy show stopper was the scarpinocc. It deserves an award. Like a desert pasta, like something I've never experienced before. This place gets it. Top this off with being BYOB, assisting u in sheer decadence while choosing your own wine. We took a pie home too and knocked on all our neighbors doors, to enjoy heaven with us. This is a Hoboken MUST. Thank u to all the staff at Flour for a fabulous evening. read more

3.5 Stars (wish we had .5 increments, but I digress). A buddy and I met up with some friends in Hoboken (4 of us total) and they have been itching to try Flour, so we made a night of it. The ambience is very nice, cozy but sophisticated. The place is BOYB, but also, and kinda really lamely,...it's BOYBottle of water. No tap water available...at a place that is cooking up fresh pasta all night. Weird, and really rather annoying given the pricing of the food. That aside, the food is pretty good overall - we shared everything family style, and ordered: Steak tartare - this was an interesting take, with a sichuan dressing and served with sour cream and onion chips instead of bread. I liked the spiciness to the tartare...but really didn't think the chips went well with dish at all - would have definitely preferred some toast/crostini or something. Whipped Burrata on toast with black truffle and honey - a bit overpriced at $9 a pop for just one slice of toast, but a tasty dish for sure that had a generous amount of the whip on it. Malfadani (cacio e pepe) - creamy and salty and with a nice kick of heat from the pepper. Solid Pistachio Pesto Gnocchi (forget the proper name...and they even have a website, let alone an online menu) - this was the best dish of the night imho - you like like pesto/pistachios, and soft, pillowy gnocchi, just do it. Serving size is a little on the light size, I think there were about 8 pieces. Mexican Street Corn - this looked/sounded super interesting, which it certainly was. very creamy with a hint of sweetness; it's decadent (so another smaller-portioned dish didn't bother me that much). There was another pasta dish that had mushrooms with a sweet potato puree that...was kinda bleh to me. The past was filled with ricotta I believe (or some cheese), but this was is skippable imho. I was fairly satisfied at this point, but the group pushed to try both the desserts, so we got the: Fruity Pebbles Panna Cotta - I'm not the biggest fan of fruity pebbles, but this was an okay take to have some fun with a classic. Portion of panna cotta was [thematically] small, but just a taste was fine by me. A Santa themed Cookie dessert - 2 chocolate chip and 2 molasses cookies with a jar of a mascarpone-type cream spread. Eh...I mean, the cookies were fine, but nothing real special here. Overall, the pastas were all very unique and mostly pretty tasty. There are some kinks on the logistics of the place (the no water thing for one), but it's generally still worth checking out IF you come prepared with pretty much BYO anything and everything you want to drink during the meal. read more

my friend chose this restaurant for our dinner after seeing it on a tiktok. we had pretty high hopes. we made a reservation for 7pm on a friday night, the small restaurant was pretty much entirely full. it's a nice vibe especially for the summer and this has potential to be a great date night spot as well. firstly, we had no choice but to pay for a bottle of water (they don't offer tap water), which was something we all didn't like off the bat. the service was pretty good though, nothing to complain about there. we got the ricotta toast and spicy ish caesar salad as apps, and both of them were pretty delicious. the ricotta toast came with a side of seasoned tomatoes and it was a really delicious topping paired with the super creamy ricotta on the crunchy toast, a great contrast of textures (i'm trying to sound knowledgeable). the spicy ish caesar was the favorite dish of my friends, it was not spicy at all but had a slight tiny baby extra kick to it. it's the kind of salad i would want to remake at home. in terms of main dishes, we got the squid ink pasta, the gnocchi, and the mexican corn pasta. i think out of the 3, the squid ink pasta was my favorite, the sauce was very meaty and flavorful. the mexican corn pasta was very interesting, the corn gave it a sweet flavor profile that is unique in a pasta dish. the sauce was really creamy and the ravioli were pillowy soft. personally it wasn't my favorite because i prefer savory food over food that is on the sweet side, but i do think the idea of corn pasta was cool and i think objectively it was a pretty good dish. lastly, i do have to say i didn't love the gnocchi. the texture of the gnocchi was kinda similar to indian paneer and i hate to say it but texturally, it was almost rubbery. it didn't seem to be a traditional potato gnocchi for sure. i also thought the pesto it came in was pretty mid, it was a lot thinner in terms of consistency and lacked the punchy, basil heavy flavor and chunky consistency that i associate pesto with. the last thing ill say about all of the pasta dishes is that my friend noticed none of them were hot , or even really warm when they came out. overall, i didn't love this restaurant and didn't think it was worth it for the priciness. obviously this review is from my personal perspective which is not fact. i think that there's potential here but ive definitely had much better pasta dishes. read more

Although the food is tasty, the price, portion and lack of protein for specialty pastas is not justified. Small pastas trenched in sauce that is charged $30+. On top of that they don't even allow water from the tab, their version of "still" is from the bottle. My husband and I ended up brining water from our apartment instead since we live around the corner. What kind of restaurant charges for still water, do they not have running plumbing? read more

While the food was excellent, the overall experience was incredibly disappointing due to the poor treatment we received. Our server was noticeably rude and made us feel rushed and unwelcome from the start. It was my friend's birthday, and instead of feeling celebrated, we felt disrespected and uncomfortable. To make matters worse, there was a woman at the next table using a ring light during dinner -- turning the atmosphere into something closer to a photoshoot than a dining experience. It was distracting, intrusive, and completely inappropriate for a restaurant setting. I didn't come here to have a ring light in my face while trying to enjoy a meal I paid for. The combination of the server's behavior and the disruptive environment left a bad impression. Great food is not enough to make up for poor service and lack of consideration for the dining experience of all guests. read more

The pizza was phenomenal! It's take out only, but absolutely worth it. Trust me. Very friendly staff too. 100% recommend.

Since moving to Hoboken from NYC my husband and I have tried countless pizza spots around town. This one is hands down the best! We tried Razza which is super highly rated and this one blows that place out of the water. And the pizzas are massive while using obviously fresh ingredients and keeping that wood fired crispy bottom. Definitely try this place out, the staff are super welcoming and attentive. If you go early they have some first come first serve seating out front to enjoy your pizza at. We will be back really soon! read more

I had a good experience at Flour. My fiancé and I made a reservation and were seated on time. The ambiance is cozy and perfect for a date night. For apps, we ordered the ricotta toast, it was topped with sweet peppers which was the best part of the dish. They did pile on a lot of ricotta, I had to scoop some of it out. For entrees, we ordered the spicy rigatoni and mafaldine. Both dishes were great! The lemon in the mafaldine was subtle, which I appreciated. The Calabrian chili breadcrumbs for the rigatoni was a nice addition, it added smokiness to the dish but it really wasn't spicy. We had to pay for water too, which I wasn't expecting. Overall had a good experience and would come back again. read more

This is a review for their new sister restaurant called Flour (I tried to make a separate page for it but for some reason Yelp merged it) Overall great addition to midtown Hoboken. Really nice vibe for date night or a small intimate group. Love the open kitchen concept. If you look at their Instagram they make some references to the bear (tv show) and I see what they're going for. The food was solid. It's recommended to all be shareable. We got two apps (salad and whipped ricotta), a pasta, and a main and we were appropriately full after that. They recommended two pastas and a main and if we were really hungry that probably would have been okay but would have been stuffed. Highly recommend the whipped ricotta - the truffle flavor was so good and the texture was perfect. It's served on toast. We ended up getting two which when it came out I thought it was too much but given how good it was I was happy about that. The salad was also good - fresh and flavorful. The malfadini was very good but honestly could have used some more sauce and seasoning. A little too simple for my taste. The sea bass was interesting. It was cooked very well - tender and flavorful but idk about the sauce on the bottom had a strong flavor and I didn't hate it but I also didn't love it. Also it's BYOB so bring a nice bottle of wine and get the feel of a really fancy dinner without the price tag. The main reasons for the docked star. 1) They charge 6 dollars for still water (don't really offer tap - I'm sure if you ask they would bring it) but we're not in Europe. It just leaves a poor taste in my mouth. Water shouldn't be charged for in my opinion. Increase the price of other dishes to compensate. 2) the main dishes need a little more oomph. The prep is good. 3) the tables are so close together there's no room for proper service. Our waitress was very sweet but she wasn't really able to check in. They were busy but not that busy. It doesn't seem set up for good service. Leaving these things because they are so new and I hope they considering adjusting a few things. At the end of the day - we will be back with our friends. Hope you guys do well! read more
